"The common people are convinced by His Majesty's wisdom," Jia Xu said with a wry smile.

"Grass people? You are not a grassroots person." Liu Xie shook his head, and then said: "I remember that your ancestor was Jia Yi, the Taifu of the King of Changsha, right? He was judged as a filial and honest man in his early years."

"In the first year of Yonghan, he was promoted to captain of Pingjin, and later promoted to captain of the army, and assisted the army under Niu Fu's tent."

"In the third year of Chuping's reign, you were the one who suggested to Li Jue and Guo Si that they should counterattack Chang'an, right?" Liu Xie said calmly, keeping his eyes on Jia Xu.

Upon hearing this, Jia Xu suddenly felt that his entire back was wet.

He didn't expect that he did all these things very secretly. How did the emperor know?

Moreover, in the third year of Chuping, it was precisely because of his suggestions that the royalists headed by Wang Yun attacked the streets collectively. This can be regarded as a serious trap for Liu Xie.

Jia Xu suddenly felt that it was a mistake for him to take the initiative to meet the emperor this time!

Because he didn't know at all that Liu Xie already knew what he had done in private.

And any one of these things could kill him.

Dong Cheng on the side also knew these things for the first time, and his expression completely changed.

When Dong Zhuo was executed, the Han Dynasty obviously had a chance to regain power. However, because of Jia Xu's suggestion, the newly born Han Dynasty regime fell into disgrace.

Wang Yun fell down and died, Lu Bu fled, the emperor was humiliated, and all the officials fled. It turned out that all of these were the actions of this "good brother" in front of him.

If it weren't for Jia Xu's skills, the Han Dynasty would have been able to gain a foothold in Yongzhou. Maybe by this time, the world would have been at peace.

"Jia Wenhe! So it's you!" Thinking of this, Dong Cheng looked at Jia Xu angrily.

When Jia Xu heard Dong Cheng's words, a wry smile suddenly appeared on his face.

He knew that he had thrown himself into a trap today and was doomed.

"Okay, Uncle Guo, calm down." At this time, Liu Xie spoke up: "Uncle Guo, if you have anything to do, go ahead and get busy. I want to have a good chat with Wen He."

"Your Majesty, this..." Dong Cheng suddenly said a little worried when he heard that Liu Xie wanted to be alone with Jia Xu.

"It's okay. I think Wenhe won't hurt me at this time. If he wanted to hurt me, he wouldn't come here." Liu Xie said with a smile: "I know Jia Wenhe, he is not such a person.

."

After hearing Liu Xie's explanation, Dong Cheng just pondered for a moment, then he clasped his fists at Liu Xie and said, "Here, I will wait outside the palace first."

Liu Xie didn't speak, just smiled and nodded.

After waiting for Dong Cheng to exit the study, Liu Xie looked at Jia Xu and said slowly: "However, I don't understand a bit. In the past, sir, he was very low-key in his work."

"He is the kind of person who can never go out without going out. He knows what it means to protect yourself wisely. Why did your husband appear in Luoyang this time?"

"Or do you think that I don't know what you did in the past, or that I won't kill you?"

"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven. This land is not the royal minister. The whole world belongs to Your Majesty. Naturally, His Majesty will kill whoever he wants." After Jia Xu experienced the initial panic, he gradually understood one thing.

thing.

That is, Liu Xie seems not to want to kill himself.

If Liu Xie really wanted to do something to him, there was no need to talk nonsense to him. After all, anything he had done before was enough to kill him.

And now, Liu Xie was not only willing to talk to him, but also asked Dong Cheng to leave, which was enough to prove that Liu Xie didn't want to kill him.

Since Liu Xie didn't want to kill him, what else did he have to fear?

"Sir, this seems to mean that I am a tyrant?" Liu Xie said with great interest.

"That's not the case. I just feel that your Majesty has reason to kill all the princes and their subordinates in the world. After all, how many of these princes can still obey your Majesty's orders?"

"For a group of ministers who disobey the edict, this crime is enough."

"Oh? I am very satisfied with what you said, sir, but please rest assured, sir, I have no plans to go on a killing spree at the moment, and even if I do, I won't kill you."

"Because I know your abilities, letting you die like this will be a loss to me and to the big man." Liu Xie tilted his body to make himself more comfortable.

"So, sir, are you here now for yourself or for the people behind you? If I remember correctly, sir, you should still be with Zhang Xiu now, right?"

"Wei Chen is doing it not only for himself, but also for Zhang Xiu, and even more for Your Majesty." Jia Xu said seriously.

"Oh? There is something about me in this? Why don't I know? I wonder if you, sir, would like to explain it to me?" When Liu Xie heard what Jia Xu said, he immediately became interested.

"Since Your Majesty wants to know, then I will certainly answer your Majesty's questions. But before talking about this matter, I have a few questions that I would like to ask Your Majesty." Jia Xu said to Liu Xie with his hands raised.

"Sir, please tell me. If I know, I will definitely help you clear up your doubts."

"May I ask Your Majesty, do you think that after defeating Li Jue and Guo Si, Your Majesty will be able to sit back and relax?" Jia Xu asked directly.

"What do you mean?" Liu Xie frowned when he heard Jia Xu's words.

"Your Majesty, not long ago, near Luoyang, we completely annihilated the Xiliang army, killed Li Jue and Guo Si, and surrendered more than 100,000 people. And according to the news that Wei Chen knows, there are enough heavenly soldiers in Luoyang City.

150,000. The entire Xiliang army is now like a pile of scattered sand and can only retreat to Yongzhou."

"Now that your Majesty is victorious on the battlefield, it seems that the crisis of the Han Dynasty has been resolved, and Sili has also fallen into the hands of your Majesty, but has your Majesty ever thought that the Xiliang army is not the only one who can threaten your Majesty?"

"Although Ma Teng, his son and Han Sui from Xiliang did not get the title of governor of Xiliang, it is a foregone conclusion that they will rule Xiliang separately."

"Cao Cao in the east has strong strength and occupies natural dangers like Hulao Pass. He can send troops into Sili at any time. Outside, Cao Mengde is actively expanding eastward and has initially gained the strength to sweep the world."

"Although Zhang Yang in the north is useless, there is Yuan Benchu ​​behind him. The fourth and third princes of the Yuan family are extremely prominent. Now they have occupied Jizhou and led the Jizhou herdsman. This means that they do not take the emperor seriously."

"To the south of Luoyang is Jianzhong General Zhang Xiu, who has 100,000 troops and has occupied Wancheng. Although he did not enter enough, he has more than enough to defend." (Here Zhang Xiu occupied Wancheng a year earlier, as the plot requires.)

"It can be said that your Majesty seems to be in peace now, but in fact he is besieged by various princes in Sili, Luoyang."

"After Luoyang experienced Dong Zhuo's rebellion, its population was withered and everything was in ruins. If your Majesty wants to develop Sili, you will definitely need the support of the surrounding states. Your Majesty is too smart to really think that the surrounding princes

, do you really hope that His Majesty can develop?"
